How do you copy it?
Which archive container do you use?
I have tried it with:
/: cat zip.bat
cd C:\
\7z\7za a -tzip -xr!cygwin64/home/* -xr!cygwin64/var/log/* tmp\cygwin64.zip cygwin64
But in resulting cygwin64.zip the directories /cygdrive /proc /usr/bin and /usr/lib are
missing, because they are mount points.
Next problem is: the file permissions will not be restored.
